Congenital Right Lung Agenesis with Dysplastic Sternum - A Constellation of Two Rare Cases

Journal Title: INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF SCIENTIFIC STUDY - Year 2019, Vol 6, Issue 11

Abstract

Congenital lung agenesis is a rare disease spectrum which includes complete agenesis, lung aplasia (with rudimentary bronchus) and partial agenesis. It is embryological anomaly arising from failure of unilateral lung bud to develop. Sternal dysplasias are very rare entities with only few reported cases[1] . We present case report of a 1 year old female with complete right lung agenesis associated with dysplastic sternum and vertebral segmentation anomaly.
